"Missing a key 5PM PT deadline by which many OpenAI staffers were set to resign."

Says who? And did they resign?

one thing that I am curious about: aren't there non-competes in place here? and even without them, you just cannot start your own thing that just replicates what your previous employer does - this has lawsuit written all over it.

It's California. Non-competes are void. It is one of the few states where non-competes are not legally enforceable.

>>x86x87+C6
Nah this is California, that won’t work

It'll be tough going with no Azure compute contracts, no GPUs, no billions from Microsoft, no training data, OpenAI capturing all of the value from user-generated content resulted in sites like Reddit and Twitter significantly raising the cost to scrape them.

The same thing got said about Elon Musk and Twitter, and yet X is still somehow alive.

>>dabock+ak
No nothing similar at all was said about that. Sam Altman is also not Elon Musk

>>edgyqu+po
Yeah, Sam will not turn 40billion into 0 billion

>>dabock+ak
Elon had a massive preexisting AI-compute capacity from Tesla and ann enormous training set from X. That’s very different.
